Just got this today from Dave Wallace:
It’s been over three years now since 45 alumni of Camp Tosebo gathered for a memorable first-ever reunion. It was an incredible event that brought campers and staff from six decades together. When it was over and our lives slowly began to return to normalcy, we began to wonder about whether we could do it again. I believe the answer is a resounding “Yes!” for four good reasons:
· There is a large group of guys who couldn’t make it in 2005. Whether it was a schedule conflict or a little trepidation that “you can’t go home again”, Camp Tosebo is waiting to bring back many good memories.
· Since the last reunion the directory of “found” alumni has grown to about 275. The worst feeling I had in 2005 was telling a guy, who just GOOGLE’d “Tosebo” in August that, “glad you found us, and, by the way, you just missed a great reunion.” We’ve added quite few from the 70’s and several 30’s and 40’s.
· We’ve got some unfinished business from the last reunion. Everyone got a songbook in 2005, but we never took the time to try out some of those great “oldies.” There were also rumors of another special event at the Council Ring??
· We had a hell of good time – isn’t it time to do it again?
So, we’re proposing that Tosebo alumni gather again for a weekend of renewing old friendships, sharing memories of summers past, and remembering the places that made Tosebo special for each of us. We’re thinking about the weekend of June 12-14, 2009 and doing another Friday-Sunday affair. So how about it? This is an official pre-invitation. It was a great group that came in 2005, but there’s a bunch of long time campers and staff that we missed seeing in person.
I’m giving you almost a year’s notice. Nobody is booked up that far in advance – no excuses this time. Plenty of time to reserve some quality time at Camp Tosebo.
Let me know – HO FOR TOSEBOLAND
